The U.S. Food and Drug Administration will hold a public meeting on September 10, 2015 to receive input from the public on various topics pertaining to the regulation of cosmetics to help the agency prepare for the International Cooperation on Cosmetics Regulation-9 (ICCR-9) meeting that will be held November 4-6, 2015, in Brussels, Belgium.

The meeting will take place at the Harvey H. Wiley Federal Building, 5100 Paint Branch Parkway, Auditorium (first floor), College Park, MD., from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm.
